Lyrics:

The ringmaster's getting tired of his life
Training a circus of apathetic clowns
That go down through the ages
History has shown that they don't seem alone
When the makeup runs dry, they all hold their breath
And flick through all the pages

But the tricks of the trade are all they have made
With the beating hearts and the plans they obeyed
Danger: picking locks and burglary will get you nowhere fast
The tricks of the trade are all that they see
Roaming the streets and doing jobs for free
The feeling, however exciting it is, won't last

The bus driver's running service number five
But he turns his head and does some blow on the side
Nobody asks him why
He drives into town from his high, coming down
The bridge opens up and lets a few boats through
His wife begins to cry

But the tricks of the trade are all they have made
With the beating hearts and the plans they obeyed
Danger: picking locks and burglary will get you nowhere fast
The tricks of the trade are all that they see
Roaming the streets and doing jobs for free
The feeling, however exciting it is, won't last

The tricks of the trade are all that they use
The men are all dickheads, the women abuse
The tricks of the trade are all that they use
The men are all dickheads, the women abuse
The tricks of the trade are all that they use
The men are all dickheads, the women abuse
The tricks of the trade are all that they use
The men are all dickheads, the women abuse

Notes: The first one that I did for the RPM Challenge 2010 – my body decided it wanted to block my nose. AWESOME. Additionally, I have no idea what this song’s about

thryn really doesn’t agree with my northern accent
